About this listen

Guns, Cars, and Kaiju: Death Race 2000 meets Pacific Rim in a gritty tale of survival and redemption.

Nobody has taken part in the Devil’s Run annual road race as often as Dutch McGuire and lived to tell the tale.

The racecourse circumnavigates the post-apocalyptic ruins of Teijouan, and with a choice between being eaten by the monstrous Kaiju that prowl the island’s devastated cities or murdered by her fellow racers, the odds against surviving another Run, let alone winning it, are slim.

Dutch doesn’t care about the odds nearly so much as she cares about getting back behind the wheel of her beloved Ford Falcon - except for one problem: She’s spent the last five years incarcerated in a high-security prison for her part in a heist.

So when a crooked billionaire offers to put her back in the race on condition she uses it as cover for a secret retrieval operation, she can’t refuse.

Can Dutch survive assassins, monsters, and psychopathic drivers long enough to complete her mission as well as take part in the race - or is this the year death finally catches up with her in a blazing tangle of wreckage?

Devil's Road is fun all action adventure with a great, sassy female lead.

Cracking story

Here's another story from a favourite author, blending kaiju, death races, and sci-fi into a fantastic novella.

Dutch is one of the few drivers to succesfully live through the annual Devil's Run race through the apocalyptic ruins of Teijouan and, despite being in prison and serving a long sentence, is about to find herself taking part in the latest event. Not only this, but her sponsors have something a little different in mind involving a little detour to collect a mysterious package. But can she survive when other drivers are out to stop her? And lets not forget the kaiju now roaming the ruins...

Gibson hits every note perfectly here and despite it's relatively short length, this is a story I found had endless depth and possibility. The ending did come around a little quickly, but that may have been just me wanting to spend longer in this world. Here's hoping he revisits this setting, for there is plenty more I'd like to see!

Kaiju Death Race!

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

kaiju, death race, evil millionaires, ninjas, conspiracy and a touch of 'Road side Picnic ' all come together in this great story.

an interesting race

A great young adult book from the pen of Gary Gibson, however the narrator was atrocious with English and Australian accents and I'm afraid it really did distract from the audiobook

atrocious accents but good story

Wonderfully taut story from a very much under appreciated author, highly recommended, an exhilarating ride!
